Hungarian Crisis
May Be Probed
. UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., Jan. 7 (P)—The United States
announced today it is proposing the creation of a special five
nation committee of the UN General Assembly to investigate
the Hungarian situation.
This announcement was made by a delegation spokesman
Soviets Fly
Chou EnJai
To Moscow
MOSCOW, Jart. 7 (1P)--A Soviet
jet plane whiked Chou En-lai
3600 miles froth Peiping to Mos
cow today. After briefing by the
Kremlin he will go on to Poland
and Hungary.
Red China's Premier is stop
ping here three'days. Then he will
have a look at the two East Euro
pean rations which are among the
most crucial areas of the Com
munist world.
But the emphasis in Chou's
response to Russian welcoming
speeches at Nukovov Airfield
was on other things. With a
light snowstorm whitening his
fur hat and the fur collar of his
long black overcoat, he read
from a prepared statement:
"The Soviet Union has shown
the way to China in its struggle
for freedom. And now the Soviet
Union is rendering assistace to
China. It stands as a great exam
ple to our country.
"The aggression of France,
Britain and Israel in Egypt has
failed.
— The Eisenhower doctrine to
lake the place left by the Brit
ish and the Fr en c h—in the
Middle East—has already
aroused the disapproval 'of all
peace-loving states and peo
ples.
"The furious attacks by the im
perialists on our Socialist coun
tries are doomed to failure. The
friendship between our countries
is eternal and unbreakable."
Red China's recent endorsement
of Soviet policies—including even
praise for S talin— has been
hailed here as a perfect example
of Communist cooperation.

AD STAFF MEETING
Tonight at 645 9 Carnegie
All Members and Candidates Must Be Present
THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA
shortly after Secretary General
Dag Hammarskjold published a
report to the Assembly advocating I
the formation of a temporary
committee to undertake such an
investigation.
The Russian reaction to this
I type of committee was quick and
definite. A Soviet source said'
"Nyet" (no), added it would not'
help solve the Hungarian problem
and made it clear the committee
never would be permitted to get
into Hungary.
U.S. Seeking Sponsors
The U.S. spokesman said the
delegation is discussing with other
delegations details of a proposed
resolution establishing the com
mittee. He said the Americans
hope to have about 200 sponsors
for the resolution when it comes
before the Assembly. The Assem
bly is expected to be called to
consider the Hungarian situation
later this week.
Early in the Hungarian crisis,
Hammarskjold was asked to do
what he could to end it. and to
offer relief for the suffering Hun
garians. He appointed three men
to the investigatory group but in
his report to the Assembly he
acknowledged the group had not
been able to carry out its assign
ment.
Hungarians Boycotting
The U.S. spokesman declined to
say whether Hammarskjold had
conferred with U.S. Chief Dele
gate Henry Cabot 'Lodge Jr.,
about his report. However, the
pace of-events indicated there had
been consultation. 'Hammarskold
suggested the committee and the
U.S. delegation carried the ball
farther by announcing details.
As the talks went on here. the
Hungarians remained away from
the Assembly committees. Their
new permanent representative,
Peter Mod, will present his cre
dentials to Hammarskjold tomor
row. The Hungarians are slated
to return to Assembly committees
perhaps tomorrow but they will
boycott the Assembly again when
it meets on the Hungarian crisis.

Two Contracts
Given by Lab
Two two-year contracts total-,
ling $86,371.60 for studies of en
gine low-temperature problems l
have been awarded the Univers
ity by the Engineering Research
and Development Laboratories,
Fort Belvoir, Va.
The studies will be conducted
in the department of engineering
research. Dr. Wolfgang E. Meyer,
professor of engineering research,
will be in charge, and Julius J.
DeCarolis, associate professor of
engineering research, will be proj
ect engineer.
The project will include investi
gation of processes and effects of
heating engines prior to a start
ing attempt at temperatures as
low as minus 65 degrees F. •
The project also includes prob
lems connected with starting
diesel engines which have not
been preheated, but into which
diethyl ether is introduced for
promoting ignition and combus
tion.
Much of the project's experi
mental work will be carried out
in the cold rooms of the depart
ment of engineering research
where the low temperatures re
quired can be readily obtained.

Communist Poles Appeal
For Party Organization
WARSAW, Jan. 7 (in The United Workers Commu
nist Party appealed urgently to its lagging membership today
to get organized for Poland's parliamentary election Jan. ^Q_
Behindthe appeal apparently lay a sudden realization
that despite the single ticket process that limits freedom of
the voters, the party and some
of its leaders may suffer a tre
mendous loss of face.
The party newspaper Trybuna
Ludu said editorially disorganiza
tion, dissension and apathy among
party members have left the
Communists in the lurch while
the two other parties tolerated
within the Red-run National
Front are entering the campaign
"boldly and with their heads held
high."
These are the United Peasant
party and the Democratic party.
The election is organized on a
single list drawn up by the Na
tional Front, which also includes
organizations such as trade un
ions. The voter has no choice of
policies all candidates ar e
pledged to support Communist
boss Wladyslaw Gomulka's "Po
lish road to socialism."
But if the election is carriod out
according to law the voter will
be able to strike off the list the
candidates he likes least. It is
clear that this category embraces
many Communist candidates, in
cluding some of the most prom
inent.
The party is prepared to lose
some of the 273 seats it held in
the old 425-seat Parliament. Go
mulka's thesis is that participa
tion in national affairs must be
broadened. The party could drop
50 seats or so and still maintain
its majority. But it is entirely pos
sible its holdings will be reduced
far more. And this would affect
the Communists' claim to a "lead
ing role" in Poland's political life.
Senate Starts Action
To Curb Filibusters
On Civil Rights
WASHINGTON, Jan. 7 VP)
New moves to curb filibusters
and pave the way for civil rights
legislation were started in the
Senate today.
Sens. Paul Douglas (D-I11) and
Wayne L. Morse (D-Ore) intro
duced a resolution providing that
debate on any legislation could
be cut off by a constitutional ma
jority of 49 votes after the legis
lation has been under discussion
for 15 calendar days.
Douglas described the resolu—
tion as "a necessary first step be-:
fore we can hope for the passage
Of meaningful civil rights legisla
tion."
Under Senate rules now, any
senator can usually block a vote,
on a bill by engaging in a fili- 1
buster, that is, literally talking it,
to death. The rules require a two-'
thirds vote of the full member
ship, 64 senators, to impose clos
ure or debate limitation.

Red Troops
Limited In
East Zone
MOSCOW, Jan. 7 (R)—The East
German government tonight won
an agreement on the Control of
Russian garrison forces similar to
that given Poland over Soviet
troops in that country. East Ger
man newsmen reported.
The East Berlin radio said
Russia had pledged its troops
stationed within East Germany
will refrain from interfering in
East German internal affairs..
However, officials studying the
text in Berlin said the radio
may have jumped the gun on
an agreement perhaps reached
only in principle.
The Soviet government also
agreed to give East Germany sub
stantial economic and trade as
sistance. Both sides pledged to
work for Soviet disarmament pro
posals and for a four-power con-
Iference limiting troops in both
East and West Germany.
A formal communique. out
lining agreements which tech
nical committees will work out
tonight in detail later, was
r signed tonight in a Kremlin
ceremony at the close of three
days of negotiations between
Soviet experts and an East Ger
man delegation headed by Pre
mier Otto Grotewohl.
The text was no: released im
mediately to the Western press.
